Watch out for the scamming couriers

And would you really have ticked the UPS delivery option if it had said there and then that the delivery charge was ?50 higher than what you paid?

Maybe not but i would prob have looked to find the courier who had the cheapest overall cost, you are right though if they were thruthful about the upfront cost (including admin) the story may be different. On the flip side the Royal Mail is in a state it took 5 days for them to deliver a first class letter last October which is simply not good enough. I just don't trust them enough.

Yeah UPS aint stupid, they ask for the cash at the door. TNT on the other hand send a nice printed bill after about two weeks trying to justify the expense.

[Mayhem]

Still no received any letter for the two DS units I got from LikSang yet. I'm either lucky or it's still out there somewhere, waiting to arrive on my doormat.

Does ?4.40 Import VAT on a $48USD package sound fair? (?8.40 incl. RM "clearance fee")

I'm not bothered anyway, since the postie forgot/didn't bother to ask for the money!

What's worrying though, is the fact that 3 out of 3 recent Play-Asia orders that were sent in a box have been inspected/charged...

UPS delivered my DS bits and pieces and asked for no cash on delivery, does this mean i got lucky and got away with it???

yup more than likely.

Got my DS sent in a box, mark down to a third of it's price (I asked them to straight after I ordered) to $74.

Got charged a whole ?10. Which the postie didn't collect!
